Threatened January strike action at BAA airports next week has been called off following lengthy talks between unions and the company.
Staff were due to walk out next Monday in a dispute over the closure of the BAA final salary scheme to new employees.
While next week’s action has been called off a decision on another 24-hour walk-out seven days later is dependent on the deal being ratified, according to reports.
An agreement in principle was reached with the Unite and PCS unsions to call off the strike action which would have affected airports such as Heathrow, Gatwick and Stansted.
